I've just been pricing up an M3 for when I need the extra seats....(kids and all that), gorgeous car and the SMG option looks huge fun but I can actually get lower finance payments on a 996 C2. They're have been a couple of UK reviews that have slightly criticised the M3s steering feel but aside from that it seems an awesome package

 

A guy I work with is on this 4th M3, he thinks they have never been as good as the original. Still, in his opinion the best sporting saloon on the market but the later the car, the more 'remote' the driving experience.
More horsepower does not always mean a better driving experience.
Plus, in the UK at least there are thousands of BMW's on the road, the M3 just doesn't stand out for the money you pay, as Tifosi says, the money you pay for a new Beemer, you're into serios secondhand supercar money.

 

the new M3 is dope.

 

i love the M3 infact when my s2k dies out in some 10 to 12 odd years i know that i will be buying an M3

 

Where I live BMW's are a dime a dozen. Most people think the M3 is just another 3 series. Nice car but I'll stick with my S2000.

 

well, I personlly don't like M3..
good car, good engine, good style...

huh, no, still don't like it..!!

 

I love it. It will probably be my next car. Obviously the performance/handling/options compromise is more in the direction of luxury and 3 series coupes are much more common than our S2000. However those facts don't deter me in the least.

[B]In my opinion the 3 series in general just seems to be getting a bit too big.
